"Are you planning to sneak away?"
Molan laughed.
"If we can find an exit, that would be best. I’m not greedy; I’m already satisfied having you this ti. Who is still hoping for miracle dicine? The only worry is not finding a way out."
Shen Wang’s words filled Molan with tender feelings. She stopped teasing Shen Wang and instead embraced him warmly, saying, "I’m just like you."
She felt she had found a good man, as most other n would likely be unable to resist the temptation of those miracle dicines.
The two of them walked affectionately for a while before Shen Wang’s expression turned serious: "There’s movent over there."
Molan released Shen Wang, her expression turning cold.
Until she had sufficient strength, she would not reveal their relationship and maintained a certain distance in front of outsiders.
Soon, they saw a Daoist picking ordinary herbs. These herbs were only around a hundred years old, leftovers from previous harvests.
Compared to those thousand-year-old herbs, these seed quite ordinary. Generally, they wouldn’t be picked since they would take up space in the storage pouch, limiting room for placing more valuable herbs.
Moreover, these level of herbs were only sowhat useful for Qi Cultivation cultivators, yet the Daoist before them had a Golden Core Level cultivation, which was unexpected.
"He’s not one of us; he’s from another faction."
Shen Wang said.
"Yes, if he ca in with us, he wouldn’t even glance at these herbs."
Molan nodded.
"Even if he ca in later, this guy is too stingy, picking even these herbs."
Shen Wang shook his head.
"I’m just a re loose cultivator; cultivation is not easy, and resources are scarce. Pardon the joke I’ve beco for you two."
The Daoist suddenly looked up, smiling at Shen Wang and Molan.
Shen Wang was taken aback; he and Molan had deliberately hidden their aura and movents, yet this Daoist was quite extraordinary.
Molan stepped forward, appearing in the Daoist’s line of sight.
As the one with the higher visible cultivation, naturally, she would speak first.
"Your Excellency has quite a skill, hearing us from such a distance."
"Pardon , I’ve learned a small divine technique just for survival, allowing to hear a bit further than most."
The Daoist responded calmly.
Shen Wang ca to stand behind Molan, pretending to be her follower, and remained silent.
Molan scrutinized the Daoist: "How should I address you, friend? Where are you from?"
"Yan Xiaobin, from Qing Province, just happened to pass by. I heard that a great power’s cave mansion appeared here, so I followed other fellows to enter."
The Daoist calmly revealed his background, looking at Molan: "Among the recently entered, I haven’t seen you. You must have co earlier."
"I am Molan, from Miao Province. Indeed, I ca in a bit earlier. Who entered with you?"
Molan asked curiously.
"The Celestial Sword Sect from Qing Province, Pill Alliance from dicine Province, Royal Family from Tai Province, Spirit Buddha Temple from Desolate Province, Hundred Refining Sect from Jin Province, Lingxi Sect from Xi Province, and others, mostly major sects from nearby provinces."
Yan Xiaobin said: "There are many other smaller sect clans as well, mostly the major sects around these provinces."
Molan was shocked to hear this: "So many?"
"Yes, initially, the Demon Race tried to block us. Seeing our numbers grow, they dared not block us anymore."
Yan Xiaobin nodded, regrettably: "Alas, after I entered, I found that most of the treasures here have been stripped bare, leaving only scraps."
She exchanged a glance with Shen Wang, and said secretly: "It seems we need to change our plan. With so many entering, going to other areas might be risky."
"Yes, we should adjust. If they discover we ca earlier, they might target us like prey."
Shen Wang agreed.
Molan said: "If you’d like to continue, feel free to wander around. We will go ahead."
"Would it be possible to join forces? With more people, it’s relatively safer."
Yan Xiaobin suggested.
"No need, if you don’t want to find these things, you can head that way."
Molan shook her head; she didn’t know him and obviously couldn’t trust him.
Should he attract other powerful individuals to them, it would beco troubleso.
Molan gave him little chance and turned away imdiately.
Yan Xiaobin took a glance, his eyes flickering, but he did not follow.
The two quickly distanced themselves.
"This person is not simple; he seems confident, his strength likely more than what is apparent."
After putting so distance, Molan spoke.
"He is likely hiding so of his cultivation, and perhaps even his identity is fabricated."
Shen Wang nodded, then sighed: "I never expected the situation in this place to leak, attracting so many factions. Now we have no choice but to regroup with the main forces."
"Yes, with more forces entering, the situation is chaotic. It’s safer with them."
Molan nodded.
Shen Wang suddenly said: "That person is following us in the shadows."
Molan’s eyes turned cold: "If he dares to ss around, I won’t be polite."
"He’s not closing in, likely trying to use us to find the most valuable spots now."
Shen Wang said: "Or perhaps waiting for other companions."
"Hmph, I’ll poison him a little."
Molan grumbled.
"No need; as long as he doesn’t get close, it’s fine. Poisoning him would leave traces, making it easier to follow us."
Shen Wang said.
"Don’t underestimate ; my poison can dissipate on its own, leaving no trace."
Molan stated confidently.
"Suit yourself. Technically, you are my senior; I’m rely a small Foundation Establishnt cultivator now."
